Is DF-283 compatible with Nikon D100 - Vivitar Cameras

Nikon no longer has the D100 manual on line; but if it is like the more modern Nikons, you will be able to select the resolution in mp from one of your camera's built in menus.

My Nikon D100 gives me this -E- when I haven't got a memory card in it

Hello, The problem is with either the card you are using or the pins inside the camera. Here is an answer that was posted on 3/30/09

Nikon D100

I assume you're asking about the 283, not the DF-283 which is compatible with digital cameras.

As for the 283, yes, if you put an adapter such as the Wein Safe-Sync between the camera and the flash. Under no circumstances should the flash be mounted directly on the camera.

No, the Vivitar 283 does not have TTL (Through The Lens metering capability) and the voltage in the flash may be much higher than that in the camera. Some of the old 283 flashes had a very high operating current that, when the flash is left one and removed from the camera can damage the camera operating circuts. Find a Nikon SB 400, 600, 800 or 900 speedlite, or a Promaster 7200 or 7500 for a great less expensive flash for this camera.

Something better: Nikon D100

I'm not sure if your asking, but yes, your lenses for the D100 will be compatible with the D80 and D300.

make sure you have card inside, your lens if fixed correctly and your lens aperture by the end max 32 or 22
